In-Dependence
How's your Independence Day going? Are you independent or
in-dependence? After a few weeks or months, most baby animals are
ready for independence. Humans spend nearly a quarter of their lives
just getting ready. If we're lucky, our families help us to grow
straight, so we can stand alone. Growing up means learning to make
decisions that are right for us, in tune with the larger design of
our life as it is woven into the larger pattern. We'll always want
other people for companionship, love and cooperative work, but by the
time we're ready to choose how we want to live we should be able to
stand by ourselves. Even when our families aren't able to give us the
best start in life, we have the power to remake choices, rechoose
activities and companions that will grow along with us.
Our human parents may be precious loved ones or they may be
strangers; the aim of our search for self-knowledge is the power to
parent ourselves. We need steady nurturing all our lives, and no
other person can supply it. I've enjoyed walking on this journey with
you thus far. Here's to even greater independence for us all. Yours
in continued growth and independence,
Freedom means the right to be different, the right to be oneself -
